Chapter 700 Shen Liang's True Colors
No one knows what Shen Liang's true intentions are in joining this team.
However, a cold glint flashed in Shen Liang's eyes, as if he did not want Leng Yun to join his team.
"Haha, alright, then let's see you on the field," Zhu Qiang said. "Although the rules of the competition forbid killing, swords have no eyes, and it's normal for a few people to die."
Faced with Zhu Qiang's threat, Du Linfeng did not back down at all: "Hmph, I will definitely do my best to deal with you!"
Zhu Qiang and the others laughed again, then turned and left.
The crowd grew bored and gradually dispersed.
Afterwards, Du Linfeng introduced Leng Yun to the other team members.
Although she is a girl, Du Linfeng has a heroic and spirited air about her.
Xiao Lan and A Qing greeted Leng Yun warmly, while Shen Liang merely nodded coldly.
Du Linfeng said, "With Brother Shen Liang's help this year, we will definitely succeed, and I think Junior Brother Leng Yun is also quite capable."
“Yes, we’ll work harder than the other teams. We’ll have three days to kill more monsters while they rest,” Xiao Lan said.
Aqing nodded and said, "Feng'er, don't worry. The competition is about who has more points. As long as we don't lose points to other teams, we have a chance to win and you can enter Elder Peak."
Looking at the three girls, Leng Yun sensed the bond between them.
However, one thing that puzzled Leng Yun was why Du Linfeng insisted on entering Elder Peak.
Du Linfeng seemed to have noticed Leng Yun's doubts.
Du Linfeng smiled and said, "I don't want to become any kind of expert. As long as I enter Elder Peak, I will have enough resources to treat my younger brother, who was crippled by Zhu Hui."
"So that's how it is," Leng Yun suddenly realized, and instantly felt a great deal of goodwill towards the group.
However, he still felt something was strange about Shen Liang, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
Three days later, amidst everyone's eager anticipation, the selection of inner court disciples finally began.
The group arrived early at the edge of the Monster Forest behind the mountain.
This forest is home to many high-level magical beasts. Killing different levels of magical beasts will earn you different points. The team with the highest score will be able to enter Elder Peak.
An elder, known as Elder Feng, came down from Elder Peak to preside over the assessment.
There are five teams participating in the selection competition. Apart from Leng Yun's team, all the other teams have experts on the power ranking list.
Zhu Qiang and Zhu Hui's team had the most experts, but they weren't the strongest. Besides them, there was another team whose leader was the number one on the power ranking, named Luo Tian.
The other two teams are equally strong, both having top players from the rankings.
The appearance of these teams immediately aroused the excitement of the crowd, who cheered and welcomed them.
Finally, Leng Yun and Du Linfeng's team appeared.
None of them were among the top experts on the leaderboard, and they also had a freshman, so no one thought this team would win.
Because of their desire to curry favor with Zhu Qiang, many people rushed forward to boo and loudly mock Leng Yun and the others.
Shen Liang's face looked rather grim.
Leng Yun found Shen Liang increasingly strange. He knew in his heart that Shen Liang must have some kind of conspiracy, which was why he joined this team.
Du Linfeng, however, wore a suggestive expression.
Leng Yun could fully feel the affection this older sister had for her younger brother, and he was deeply moved. He secretly resolved to help Du Linfeng enter Elder Peak.
Elder Feng stood before the crowd, appearing to be in his eighties or nineties, with gray hair but a vigorous spirit and bright, piercing eyes.
"The competition is about to begin. You will spend three days in the forest. After three days, the winner will be decided," Elder Feng said, giving Leng Yun's team a meaningful look.
Then, with the sound of a drum, the five teams entered the forest from different directions.
Leng Yun and the others continued their journey, venturing deeper into the area.
"What do we do now?" Xiaolan asked.
“It would be best if we split up now. Junior Brother Leng Yun’s cultivation is decent, so he can go alone to kill the demonic beasts,” Shen Liang said. “I will protect the three of you, and we will go as a group to kill the other demonic beasts.”
Shen Liang is considered a master among the inner disciples, and he has the potential to enter the ranking of the strongest.
Du Linfeng and the others were naturally very grateful to Shen Liang for his help this time.
Therefore, Shen Liang's words naturally represent authority.
Leng Yun was curious. Shen Liang was clearly trying to get her away. What kind of plan did he have?
Du Linfeng, on the other hand, was in a bit of a predicament; it didn't seem like a good idea to send Leng Yun away like this.
Leng Yun smiled and said, "Okay, it's decided then."
He wanted to see what kind of conspiracy Shen Liang was plotting.
Afterwards, Leng Yun separated from the four people, and after walking a short distance, Leng Yun followed them.
Given Leng Yun's true strength, these four people naturally wouldn't be able to detect him.
Before long, Shen Liang led the three to a secluded place.
Suddenly, Shen Liang launched an attack, subduing the other three people and rendering them unable to move.
Du Linfeng was startled: "Brother Shen, what are you doing?"
Shen Lang let out a wicked laugh, finally revealing his true colors.
"Haha, you three stupid girls, you really thought I would help you? You have no self-awareness at all, and you dare to compete with people on the expert list?" Shen Liang laughed. "Let me tell you the truth, I just want to play with you here."
"You bastard, let us go right now, or I'll never forgive you!" Xiaolan said angrily.
"Haha, don't worry, once we've had our fun, even if we let you go, you won't leave. I, Shen Liang, am quite the ladies' man." Shen Liang grinned lewdly.
"Damn it, we really misjudged you," Aqing cursed.
"Hehe, you can only blame yourselves for being blind." Shen Liang laughed even more lewdly.
"Girls, who wants to serve me first?" Shen Liang's eyes leered as he swept over the three women.
These three women were all quite good-looking, and could be considered school beauties in the inner courtyard.
In the end, Shen Liang went to Du Linfeng.
In the critical moment, Leng Yun suddenly appeared from behind.
"How about I play with you for a bit first?" Leng Yun said coldly.
When Shen Liang saw that it was Leng Yun, he was first stunned, then felt angry and glared at Leng Yun fiercely.
"Kid, if you want to live, get out of my way and don't ruin my good time," Shen Liang shouted.
